This beautifully designed, full-colour book presents a collection of 150 archaeological and ethnographic objects produced by Canada's First Peoples - including some that are roughly 12,000 years old - that represent spectacular expressions of creativity and ingenuity. Curators Jean-Luc Pilon and Nicholette Prince sought out pieces held by the Canadian Museum of Civilization that could be considered "masterworks" based on their aesthetic qualities, symbolic value, or the skills and raw materials used in manufacturing them. These unique and priceless artifacts embody the rich diversity of skills and materials used by Canadian Inuit, First Nations, and Métis in both ancient and modern times.First Peoples of Canada is full of insights not only on the pieces themselves, but also on the cultures that produced them and the geography of this vast land. Readers will come away from this book with a renewed appreciation of the lifestyles and achievements of Canada's original inhabitants.This collection focuses on items made by people in four regions across Canada: the farmers of the Great Lakes, the hunters and warriors of the Great Plains, the wealthy Salmon People of costal British Columbia, and the people of Canada's harshest environments, the Arctic and Boreal Forest. 606 $aIndian art$zCanada$vExhibitions 606 $aIndians of North America$xMaterial culture$zCanada$vExhibitions 606 $aIndian arts$zCanada$vExhibitions 606 $aIndians of North America$zCanada$xAntiquities$vExhibitions 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aIndian art 615 0$aIndians of North America$xMaterial culture 615 0$aIndian arts 615 0$aIndians of North America$xAntiquities 676 $a971.004/97074 700 $aPilon$b J.-L$g(Jean-Luc),$0929340 702 $aPrince$b Nicholette$f1964- 702 $aCardinal$b Douglas 702 $aDyck$b Ian G. 702 $aYellowhorn$b Eldon$f1956- 712 02$aCanadian Museum of Civilization. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453200803321 996 $aFirst peoples of Canada$92088718 997 $aUNINA
